  • The transmission of the virus into humans is mediated from infected bats through body fluids.
  • The major disease caused by the virus is is Hemorrhagic fever. In this disease, the platelet (responsible for clotting of blood) count in the blood  drops far below normal. As a result, bleeding can get initiated both in the body interior or exterior. This disease can cause multiple organ failure and death.

Answer:

The correct answer is A) Biochemical test

Explanation:

In microbiology biochemical test is used to examine the metabolic activities performed by bacteria to identify that microorganism. So in biochemical test enzymatic reaction of cell is usually investigated because there is difference in enzymatic activity of different species of bacteria.

For example, catalase test that is used to differentiate between catalase-positive and catalase-negative bacteria is an example of biochemical test. Catalase-positive bacteria have the catalase enzyme that breaks hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen which is confirmed by bubbles that appear on glass slide.

Catalase negative bacteria do not form bubbles when they are put in hydrogen peroxide which shows that they lack catalase enzyme. So the right answer is A.
